My middle child was thoughtful enough to collect this little flower on the walk home from school to share with me. It was so small and so pretty and made such an impact on my day.

What a great few days in Edinburgh at the Bilingualism Matters Symposium!
Loads of fab talks, great interactions with researchers and practitioners, and I even won a free ticket to next year's conference 🤯 what more could a girl ask for?!
See you all in Milan!

2/3 We discussed what it looks like when your job is being a scientist, the importance of learning when your experiment doesn't go as planned, and how we change and adapt as language learners.
And of course, I brought along my brain for everyone.
